Tournament Tomorrow

Well, there is a 50 point Steamroller 2011 tournament tomorrow morning at Misty Mountain Games in Madison, WI.  I've decided to go and try to win coin and glory for the Protectorate of Menoth.  This will be excellent practice for the Mayhem Cup in one month so I've decided to bring the two lists I'll be fielding at the Cup.

I'll be taking some photos of the event as well as trying to remember some of my games.  Wish me luck!

Lists after the cut.

Painting and Game

In the last few days, I've completed my 200th painted Warmachine and Hordes model.  I ended up finishing my Knights Exemplar unit of 4 that weren't done and got them dipped and sprayed.  I'll be basing them tonight and getting some photos taken.  I'm very happy with how the army is looking and I'm really excited to see the Grand Exemplar Kreoss theme force completed, cause it'll look awesome (think of a ton of Knights running around in armor, that the general idea!)  Speaking of Kreoss, that model and Reznik's model both took a dip last night to make those models pop more.  I'm terrible at shading, and this Army Painter dipping product is saving my life, making my models look better than ever.

Preparing for the Mayhem Cup...

On April 30th, the Mayhem Cup Event will happen again in Madison, WI.  This will be Madison's second defense of the cup.  Last time,  we had 7 players from Hobbytown USA in New Berlin, WI go.  We took 6th, 8th, 11th (me), 16th, 20th, 23rd, and 38th out of 44 players.  My goal is to break into the top 10.  To do this, I've switched factions from Cryx to Protectorate of Menoth.  I've been disillusioned by Cryx for a little while now and don't want to get stuck in a rut of playing the same two or three Warcasters over and over (for the record, they were Lich Lord Asphyxious, Wraith Witch Deneghra, and Master Necrotech Mortenebra).

One of the random prizes at the event is the fully painted army drawing.  You only need to have one of your two lists you can bring to the event painted, so I'm going to do at least that and try to get both done.

What follows is the craziness I am about to embark on, along with the one guaranteed list and two alternate lists...
